    Verdict

    BRASCA (NAP) has won from 1m2f to 1m6f and could possibly find this on the short side though he made a very encouraging reappearance after a long break behind the odds-on Boss Power at Wolverhampton. He had Singing The Blues a long way behind that day and can get back on the winning trail. Prince Of Harts takes a massive drop in class though hasn't run well since 2019 and he's better suited to some give in the ground. Dreamweaver will love the conditions having landed a handicap at this level Haydock on fast going last summer but Noonday Gun's easy Catterick victory came on soft ground.
